RICKY TAYLOR BASKETBALL ACADEMY

#BuildMyHouse is based on the Scripture Matthew 7:24-25

“These words I speak to you are not incidental additions to your life, homeowner improvements to your standard of living. They are foundational words, words to build a life on. If you work these words into your life, you are like a smart carpenter who built his house on solid rock. Rain poured down, the river flooded, a tornado hit—but nothing moved that house. It was fixed to the rock. (Matthew 7:24-25 MSG)

Here at the RTB Academy, #BuildMyHouse teaches our basketball players to prepare for adversity. We will apply the Word of God in every aspect of our lives so that when trouble comes, we will have a Word to stand on. We build our “spiritual” house to create a “firm” foundation in our faith and walk with God.

Not only are we building our spiritual houses, but we are also building our basketball house. The RTB Academy will ensure that every player builds a solid “foundation” and receive the fundamentals to position them for success.

#BuildMyHouse will also focus on building young men and women of character. We will instill discipline, work ethic, and respect in our players to ultimately prepare them to become better student-athletes. It is our prayer that our players use these valuable lessons apply them in the classroom.

The Ricky Taylor Basketball Academy is recognized as providing athletes with professional skill development. We carefully evalutate a player’s current skill-set, taking their opportunities for improvement and turning them into strengths.

The RTB Academy focuses on expanding and developing players by introducing and educating them on superior ball handling, unconscious state of shooting, mastering a mid-range game, and providing them with a the skill-set to finish at the rim.

The RTB Academy will consist of drills with open and half-court simulations with real game situations. The Ricky Taylor Basketball Academy guarantees to get you better! The RTB Academy will be held at Notre Dame High School, 2701 Vermont Avenue, Chattanooga, TN 37404.
